Paula’s lecture on Saturday went well. I didn’t get to take any photos of the event at Hartsdale Fabrics as I helped Paula hold up her quilts. The quilts are pretty in person. As Paula shares the quilts she shows what’s working and what’s not working in the quilts so that she can give information how to correct the problem with the quilt. I truly enjoy hearing other quilters stories, our similarities and our differences and how those differences complement one another as quilters.
Paula’s classes didn’t go through so we played tourist for 2 days. Sunday we went into Manhattan to the City Quilter. Paula, Cathy and I all purchased a little something and were able to view the Carol Taylor exhibit currently on display. The quilts are beautiful and I’ll share those later in the week.
The other vehicle that is adorable is Herbie the Love Bug.
After lunch Paula and I hopped on the Grayline for a tour of lower Manhattan. With the tour you can hop on/off at a variety of sites around the City to explore a little more. My sweetie found the address for Purl Soho for us but I wasn’t quite sure of the streets and directions so we stayed on the bus. Paula has a ton of pics of the buildings and architecture that she’ll post on her blog when she has a little time.
We ordered a canoli cake and a NY style cheese cake with chocolate Mousse. YUM! We ate dinner later in the day after more shopping!
All in all, a good trip.
I’m teaching in Maine the 15th & 16th at Creative Sewing in Auburn. The 15th is Beginner Machine Quilting and the 16th is a combination of And Now What?! and Let Your Foot Loose Be Fancy & Free. I’d love to see you there!
Wow, what a fund time you had! Paula looks so different than when I’ve seen her on quilting TV shows as a guest. I love Manhattan, it’s the most exciting place to visit.
I’m soooo happy I ventured out that night. Paula was awesome!!! I learned so much and realized I have so much yet to learn.
I’m so happy you came too!
Oooh… I love wrought iron gates. Have never used one in one of my quits, but they sure make me WANT to. Thanks for sharing the pictures!
